Transformers and the Resident Evil remaster highlight October’s free PlayStation Plus games

Back to the Shack

It may be 20 years old at this point, but the original Resident Evil still holds up. That may be, in part, due to the fresh coat of paint it got last year. Paying PlayStation members get to see for themselves soon enough.

Sony has announced October’s free PlayStation Plus titles, and it’s looking like quite the solid month — especially for PS4 owners. Keeping in line with the month’s traditional spooky themes, Resident Evil HD Remaster brings players back to the mansion that kicked off an entire franchise’s worth of scares. Transformers: Devastation gets in on the gratis action too; the robotic beat-em-up was probably PlatinumGames’ most recent game that was generally well-received.

Over on PS3, Techland’s ATV racer Mad Riders and Ubisoft’s god game From Dust are the free offerings. Code: Realize: Guardian of Rebirth and Actual Sunlight round out October as Vita’s freebies.
